Which dress is better for a cocktail party?

MemberThread Starter

My company's Christmas party is this Saturday. The attire is cocktail. I went shopping today and found these 2 dresses. I really like the second one, but I don't know if its cocktail or not. Which do you like better, or none of them at all? I will probably go shopping again tommorow too, so please name some stores I should check out. Thanks girls!

I've looked at Dillards, Macys, JC Penney, Nordstrom, Palais Royal basically all your department stores. I've also been to the typical mall stores: Express, Limited, Guess, and Urban Outfitters. The problem is that I'm 5'1 and wear a size 2/4 so finding a dress that fits is very hard. I have curves and if I don't get something with a defined waist, then I look bulky.

<3 my Louboutins!

overall i like how the second dress fits on you. the first one makes you look shorter since the hem ends on your mid calves... for a cocktail party i think you should look for bright dresses that ends either on or above your kneecaps.
